This is so beautiful and sad at the same time… With my 4 kids, I never realized those ”last time”. The happy thing is that our 14 years old boy (looking like 17) still wants a hug, loves to hold my hand, to shop with me… All 4 still creep into our room for cuddles. From now, I’ll definitely cherish those times and keep them as precious memories! I think this poem title should be: those joyous/happy times or those precious memories or the virtuous mom… !
Poem
Stand in Faith!!!
Even when you can’t see your way
Stand in faith
Even when you feel like you can’t face another day
Stand in faith
Even when the tears want to flow from your eyes
Stand in faith
Knowing that our God will always provide
Stand in faith
Even when you feel that all hope is gone
Stand in faith
Knowing that He is always there for you to lean on
Stand in faith
Even when you feel like giving up
Stand in faith
Because He is there … saying, “Just look up”
Stand in faith
Even in those times you feel so all alone
Stand in faith
Hold on and be strong, for He is still on the throne
Stand in faith
Even when it’s hard to believe
Stand in Faith
Knowing that He can change your situation, suddenly
Stand in faith
Even in those times you feel it’s hard to pray
Stand in faith
And believe that He has already made the way
Faith … is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen
So stand in faith
Because you already have the victory!
–Evangelist Johnnye V. Chandler
Why???
Why So Much Suffering . . .
Why must children suffer, for the wrong we do?
Why must children pay the price for the ugly hate we spew?
Why must children have to cope with hunger and with war?
Why must children feel the wrath at Mother Nature’s core?
Why can’t children just be free and learn the way of love?
Why can’t children have no cares and love their God above?
Why should children have to worry about their future’s air?
Why must they endure these things because we were aware?!
Why is the question we must ask to truly make things right.
Why is the question we must answer so we can sleep at night.
Why can’t we now take the stand and help our children win?
THIS is why I take this stand and hope you all join in!

This life is a wonderful gift..accept it, embrace it.
It starts with a new day .. wake up and greet it.
Life is a challenge .. take it head on, and meet it.
Full of opportunity .. use it?, don’t waste it.
This Life is a mystery .. unfold it, solve it.
It starts with meaning .. wake up and understand it.
Life is a goal ..take it head on, and achieve it.
Full of promise ..fulfil it?, but keep it.
This life is a tragedy .. face it, except it.
It starts with pain .. wake up and help numb it.
Life is a struggle .. take it head on and fight it.
Full of sorrow .. sorry?, just overcome it.
This life is precious .. hold it, treasure it,
It starts with hope .. wake up and feel it.
Life is a choice .. take it head on, and make it.
full of knowledge .. use it, don’t abuse it.
This Life is adventurous .. enjoy it, explore it.
It starts with a duty .. wake up and perform it.
Life is love .. take it full on, and love it.
Full of beauty .. praise it?, and behold it.
That life is life .. live it, learn and grow
Life is good .. be good with all that you know.
